Keeping Secrets by Zanna Mackenzie, Amazon Kindle format

Running from your past can land you in a whole lot of trouble in the present!

After Kat's life falls apart she seeks a fresh start in the picturesque tourist town of Glen Falls. Needing a job — any job — she becomes an assistant in a shop selling magical candles, charms and crystals. When she learns the truth behind the town's paranormal vibe and discovers the locals have supernatural abilities, she starts to wonder whether running from her past has landed her in even more trouble in the present!

A controversial development of executive homes on what used to be a pretty area of riverside meadows is stirring up bad feelings in Glen Falls. So, when the development is hit by vandalism, there's a rather long list of suspects — including Kat's new employer. Desperate to keep her boss and good friend out of serious trouble with the police, Kat wades into sleuthing mode, attempting to catch the vandals herself before things can spiral dangerously out of control.

With a broken heart and more than enough crazy stuff already on her plate, risking a new romantic involvement is the last thing she needs, but then she meets the gorgeous and mysterious Alex. As the architect in charge of the housing development everybody hates, Alex is Public Enemy Number One in Glen Falls — another reason why Kat should stay as far away from him as possible. Unfortunately that's proving rather difficult to do …

Soon, she's way out of her depth and battling magical forces, mysteries and major mayhem — as well as trying to fight her growing attraction towards the intriguing Alex, a man who seems to be keeping even more secrets about his current life than Kat is about her past.

Can she track down the culprit before their vandalism escalates to murder and they end up in a prison cell? Why is charming Alex being quite so secretive? Is Kat's disastrous past about to catch up with her?

Innkeeper and irrepressible sleuth Judith McMonigle Flynn and cousin Renie face off against a cold-blooded killer in a beach community …

With the holidays gone and Hillside Manor almost empty, Innkeeper Judith McMonigle Flynn has a bad case of the blues. A housesitting stint at her aunt and uncle's retirement home on Whoopee Island with cousin Renie seems like the ideal pick-me-up. Surrounded by retirees in the off-season sounds peaceful and pleasant — or so the duo thinks. But it isn't long before a dead body pops up in their vicinity. Not surprising in an area full of older folks — until they learn it wasn't a bad ticker that did in the victim, but a very sharp knife. With clouds of suspicion hovering over her and Renie, Judith reluctantly begins sleuthing — if only to prove they didn't commit the crime.

But what she finds is puzzling. The victim reputedly didn't have an enemy in the world — except for the killer. Digging for clams and answers, the cousins discover that retirement can be deadly — at least among the eclectic, eccentric residents of Obsession Shores.

A doctor and his wife who collect unusual Japanese figurines? The best man, an ex — drug dealer with lecherous eyes and roving hands? What about her cousin's future stepfather — or even the bridegroom himself?
